The pictures were aired on the Saudi state TV channel, leaving fans to wonder what had happened to their favorite acting star. But, according to Middle East news portal, Elaph, the Saudi channel has now denied airing the photos and confirmed, alongside Suad, that the rumors were false.

The acting legend told reporters this week that she was seriously disappointed that people would make up the reports of her death in the first place and asked those behind the rumors to consider how much they would hurt loved ones before making up gossip again.
